support vendor specific features found in various laptops.
The following WMI mappings are supported:
wmidell Dell laptops

HISTORY
The acpiwmi device driver appeared in NetBSD 6.0.
AUTHORS
Jukka Ruohonen <jruohonen@iki.fi> wrote acpiwmi and most of the mappings.
CAVEATS
While WMI should provide a certain degree of portability across laptop
models from a particular vendor, there is no guarantee that the mappings
are functional in all models.
The wmihp driver may conflict with hpqlb(4).
